The nightly closures of U.S. 36 at McCaslin Boulevard that originally were scheduled to end last weekend have been extended through at least tonight, June 17, according to the Colorado Department of Transportation.

According to a release, closures could continue through June 19 if necessary.

U.S. 36 will be closed a quarter mile in each direction from McCaslin Boulevard from 10 p.m. through 5:30 a.m., weather permitting. The closures had been scheduled to end last Saturday.

Traffic will be detoured onto McCaslin Boulevard and then routed back on to U.S. 36 via on-ramps.

The work includes partial demolition of the McCaslin bridge, which is being widened to accommodate the Diverging Diamond Interchange.
